Chamerion angustifolium
I have been watching the blooms unfold on my fireweed for several days now, taking a photo every day, and waiting to see when the heat-wave-death-bubble will at last leave us alone. It mostly has moved on, but plants are suffering. It appears to me to look like mid-July out there now, and a lot of plants have wilted. Today, though a few more buds have opened up, the bloom was starting to wilt from the bottom, so yesterday's shot will have to do. I have two vigorous fireweed plants next to each other here. One came from my neighbors down the road, and the other from my friend Charlotte.
